Danielle Nyland's death now ruled suspicious: RCMPBack to video

Nearly a year later, RCMP say her death is considered suspicious but no arrest has been made.

“We know there are individuals who have information regarding her activities and whereabouts prior to her death,” RCMP said in a news release on Wednesday.

Nyland was a week away from her 23rd birthday when she was last seen on the morning of June 8, 2015 near Shellbrook. She had been at a party in the East Flat area of Prince Albert the night before.

In the months after her disappearance, her mother, Lori Nyland, said Danielle was with three men she didn’t know well that night. She and a friend met up with the men and went out of town to party, her mother said.

On the morning of June 8, a black Chevrolet Cruz with four people inside stopped at a gas station at the intersection of Highway 55 and Highway 3 in Shellbrook, according to RCMP.

A little over an hour later, the same car stopped at the same gas station — but this time only two people were in the car.

The next day, RCMP located that vehicle, which they now say is part of “an ongoing investigation.”

Danielle was reported missing the day after that, on June 10. After extensive searches by RCMP and civilian crews, her body was discovered in a wooded area near Shellbrook on June 19. Her cellphone had been found on the driveway of a rural property nearby.

RCMP say Danielle was wearing black tights and a patterned shirt with blue, pink and teal arrows and shapes on the night she went missing.
